The players i come across who cheese the most on ladder are usually random players.
But i dont think it gives an unfair advantage, you find out what race your opponent is within the first few minutes anyway, although this can disadvantage some playstyles where a fast expo is almost essential.

Regardless you should have a build that you use against a random player that is safe enough regardless of what race they spawn as.

little bit off topic but one time i verse a random player that told me he was zerg, i cautiously believed him and did my ZvZ build but scouted him anyway just in case and he turned out to be protoss. i ended up winning the game anyway with him calling zerg OP along with some other things and now ill never believe a random player again.

I just hate playing TvP agains randoms. I hate dealing with void ray all-ins when you are forced to wall off because you don't know the race. And every single random that gets protoss on ladder seems to blindly proxy a stargate somewhere on the map.

Yeah that does suck but if you get a scout into their base (usually not that hard if you scout early) and see double gas, or only 1 gate and a cybercore and nothing else being built, or chronoboost being saved up for ages then you can safely assume there is something fishy going on and send out 2 scv's all over the map.

plus, the fact that they are random doesnt change the fact that a void ray all in is lame as hell and i hate them too.
